Theodore back on track

Washington Capitals coach Bruce Boudreau hasn’t made a final decision yet, but it looks like José Theodore (above) will be the team’s starting goalie for the playoffs.

Theodore has a 2.75 goals-against average and a .911 save percentage this season, while Semyon Varlamov – who took the No. 1 job from Theodore during last year’s playoffs – has a 2.63 GAA and a .908 save percentage.

“We’ll wait until the playoffs start, and we haven’t made any decisions on it, but (Theodore is) certainly making a good case for himself,” head coach Bruce Boudreau told the Washington Post.

The Gazette’s Dave Stubbs wrote a Spotlight Story feature on Theodore in Tuesday’s paper. You can read it by clicking here.
